Answer:
a. 0.13
b. 33,234
Explanation:
You had to take away 13% or 0.13 which is what a. is showing you how to do. To clarify, to find 13% you do 0.13 times the original price. This means you would decrease the original price by $4,966. This would leave you with $33,234 since you subtracted $4,966 from $38,200.
